CHECKROW Meaning and Definition

1. A checkrow refers to an agricultural technique used in row crop farming. It involves the establishment of an alternating pattern of crops and fallow areas within a field. The checkrow system provides several benefits, including increased water retention, soil conservation, and efficient use of space.

   The checkrow technique involves dividing a field into a series of squares or checks, typically about 40 to 80 feet wide, using raised banks or ridges. These banks serve as borders between the checks and help retain water during irrigation or rainfall. Within each check, rows of crops are planted, while alternating checks are left fallow or used for other purposes such as drainage, reservoirs, or to create a barrier against soil erosion.

   This system helps conserve water by minimizing runoff and allowing it to be absorbed by the crops more effectively. Furthermore, it helps prevent soil erosion by reducing the amount of exposed land and creating barriers that slow down and redirect water flow.

   The checkrow technique also provides an efficient use of space by maximizing crop production within a given area. By utilizing the alternating pattern of crops and fallow areas, farmers can make the most of available land and increase overall productivity.

   In summary, a checkrow is a system used in row crop farming where alternating squares or checks are established within a field to improve water retention, prevent soil erosion, and increase crop productivity.

Etymology of CHECKROW

The term "checkrow" is derived from the combination of two words: "check" and "row".

The word "check" has various meanings, but in this context, it comes from the Old French word "eschequier", which means "chessboard". It developed from the Late Latin word "scaccarium", which also refers to a chessboard. Over time, "check" started to be used in English to mean a pattern of squares, similar to a chessboard.

The word "row" has its origins in the Old English word "rāw", which also means a line or series of things. It can be traced back to the Old High German word "rīha", meaning a "line" or "series".

When combined, "checkrow" refers to a pattern of plants or objects arranged in rows with regular spacing, creating a grid-like appearance.
